What a name LOL

Looks ok, is it RWD? :D

It must be a great car, but this name for me does't soud cool :lol:

When i'm playing a game and it's full of "lag" i say "leguera" which sounds exactly like leggera and if you add the super in the beggining, well... You know the result :mrgreen:

Looks great, just awesome :shock:

Interesting!

I assuming the specs will come soon.

deuces 02-26-2007 03:38 PM

oooo looking forward to that

No official specs yet, but I've heard talk about some weight loss and a little more power.

I really don't like the wheels actually, they look too much like TSW wheels like those on the white Taxi from the French film (nice film by the way) and don't seem to fit on a Lamborghini.

As for the SuperLeggera name, that puzzles me actually, this name was a patented way of how Touring actually made the 350GT back in the Sixties, apprently the name is now available to be used on the Gallardo, but it has nothing to do with the original concept of this name, which actually meant a special way of putting aluminum sheets over a frame (correct me if I'm wrong in this, I'm typing it from memory).

Anyway, look forward to seeing the Lamborghini Stand at Geneva.

When I read the thread, I though I was going to see a Lamborghini with these wheels:

TopGearNL 02-26-2007 05:24 PM

/\/\ Aha, thanks for that and I hope its the same indeed! :D

silentm 02-26-2007 05:25 PM

imo the rims look nice on it. dunno what you guys have against it ;)

always good to hear a 2 ton car loose some weight :P

chest3r 02-26-2007 05:29 PM

Affraid of the F430 CS ?!? :mrgreen:

Anyway, great news, too bad it's not a RWD, wich increases the weight :roll: Damn Audi guys !

TopGearNL 02-26-2007 05:44 PM

/\/\ Yeah I don't understand that too..

And with all these versions of the Gallardo coming out where is the RWD? Is it even coming at all :bah:

r2r 02-26-2007 06:46 PM

I agree with Lambocars, the wheels don't really fit the design of the car,

as for the name, I actually like it!

I also think 4WD is becoming Lambos tradition, so I guess that's the reason this version doesn't have the RWD,

but I agree with Dani and others, it would have been nice to see it on this one.
